Has anyone tried steering wheel hardware in Dreams?

I haven't had a steering wheel for racing games in years, but I wonder if these devices generally act like the steering wheel is left stick local and the throttle pedal being R2 by default. If so, steering wheels might work. If not, we definitely need steering wheel support added to the controller sensor.

I don't think those wheels tend to do anything special; the PS4 should just see it as a normal controller. So yeah, should work fine! I haven't got one so I haven't tested however.

I found out that racing wheels are a little special and are in their own special analog mode as a racing wheel for games that support it. However a common wheel such as the Thrustmaster T300 also has a gamepad mode that can be selected for racing games that aren't supported. It works just as I would hope by defaulting the wheel to the left analog stick and the accelerator and brake pedals to the R2 and L2 buttons.
